Exposure Trip due to family emergency

Shedav, You have been in my prayers this week, and wondering if you were going to be able to make the trip. I know you get car sick, but I take my Bible with me and try to read from Matthew for comfort on trips that make me anxious, it might help to take some pepto or imodium to settle down your stomach before going, keep eating snacks on the way there, and make the visit for your grandparents, forget the others, dont even try to explain it, and when they make the comment See? just shrug it off and continue talking to someone other than them. I understand fully about some family members knowing my condition and inviting me for visits, its always me coming to them, never do they come to me, for a day of conversation, or to get out around my comfort zone, same thing, well have kids, as opposed to what? I have two myself. Its just as much a poor excuse on their part as they try to point fingers and lay blame on us, and ignorance. You will be in my prayers. Trish

Oops forgot the update Its Saturday Morning. I wokeup at 5:30 am couldn't sleep....quite anxious. Rest of family is still sleeping as I make numerous trips to bathroom. Finally able to stomach my clonazpam. Feeling a bit better but not a good start to the day of the trip. This will be my last post till the 15 unless I don't make the trip. Pray for me.

VENTING............ I am having such strong feelings of resentment since getting off of a IM with my BIL the other night. He begins the convo with "so you still coming?" and later on in conversation as we talk I am explaining my nervousness and anxiousness. His reply is "get over it". My dad's wife has been the same way all week. Be strong don't be weak its just a drive for heavens sake. If I had something that was outwardly showing and wasn't mental they wouldn't be talking to me like this. Their kind of talk does nothing but impede my recovery and make me feel guilty and abnormal. I mean all the things I do do account for nothing....like being pres of the Pta and attending social events like wives meetings and being away from my hubby for several months at a time. the past few nights I was so emotional about it all. Here I am all week trying to just be strong enough to keep the trip going......and than their ****. I get tired of ppl not understanding and dismissing it as something I am in complete control over. If I was I'd not be on meds. I'd not be in the emergency room etc.... My dad's wife is asking me all sorts of Q's as if I am purposely remaining sick. Well are you even seeing a psych? NO blank sherlock!! My psych says take baby steps and here I am diving in......my family wants me to dive in hands tied. I don't know if I am making any sense but it gets so OLD constantly having to defend myself and how hard I do try. They aren't living here with me they don't see what I go through......and what exactly I do do. And while I am ranting and venting...(lol) not one of them ever makes the trip to see me. They are all physically better prepared for the trips. They have more money for them and they sure the heck aren't traveling with as many kids. But no its always me making the trip back....regardless of circumstances. If it weren't for gpa this trip wouldn't be happening. Him and Gma have stood 100 percent behind me through all of my anxiety. Gma keeps questioning if this will put me back into a relapse and to not chance it if I think it will. Anyways done......
